Chapter 1277: 1278

Although the magic weapon is extremely delicate, and because of the different laws, the principles of refining are quite different from those of the Holy Court Continent's alchemy, but Mu Hanyan's understanding of the laws now is even less frustrating than the master of the Tianjin Temple. , After repeated scrutiny and practice, I figured out some experience, and began to refine it.

The void-breaking talisman has now been completed one-third of the time. Although it has become more and more difficult, Mu Hanyan's alchemy skills are constantly improving. Perhaps it will not be long before this void-breaking talisman can be refined. It was time for Ling Baobao to leave the Holy Court Continent.

"Thank you." Ling Baobao gave Mu Hanyan a deep look, then lowered his head and continued to eat, but his movements were much slower, and it seemed that every time he put down his chopsticks, he was filled with reluctance.

After eating, everyone went to the guest room to rest. Yue Xiuming just made fun of himself, he was sulking, and he didn't have the heart to embarrass them any more.

This kind of mountain town is not as prosperous as the capital. Soon after night, the town is quiet.

"Ah..." There was a shrill scream in the night sky, followed by a messy warning gong, as well as the panicked shouts of the crowd, and torches were lit everywhere in the town, but the lights were bright.

Mu Hanyan walked out of the room quickly, Hua Yue and Zi Rong were already guarding the door.

Yue Xiuming, Zeng Wenxin and others stood at the entrance of the stairs and asked the shopkeeper below, "What happened?"

"Small, I don't know much about the little ones, maybe another beast attacked the city." The shopkeeper replied calmly.

Cultivators from all over the Holy Court continent will go to the Longyan Mountains for training. Killing alien beasts is a common occurrence. Many people rely on hunting alien beasts or stealing alien beast eggs to make huge profits, and alien beasts are not low in intelligence. If they are annoyed, they will fight back frantically. In remote towns near the Longyan Mountains, alien beasts often attack the city.

This town is located in the Longyan Mountains, and this kind of thing is more commonplace, so the shopkeeper is not worried at all.

"Alien beasts attack the city, let's go, let's take a look." Yue Xiuming said happily.

"The body of the adult's daughter must not be in danger. This kind of thing can be handled by the soldiers in the town." Zeng Wenxin quickly advised.

The last time Yue Xiuming rashly fought with that "slate pig", he was scared into a cold sweat, for fear that he would run to his life again on impulse.

"Master Zeng, as the Imperial City's Imperial Army, it is our duty to protect our family and the country. Wouldn't it be chilling for the people to stand by and watch at this time?" Yue Xiuming said with a sullen face.

"But the task given by the emperor is..." Zeng Wenxin continued to persuade.

"You will be out, and your life will be affected. Haven't you heard of it? Besides, you haven't seen the power of others, so you need our protection?" Han Yan was brooding over the fact that he stole his "credit" a few days ago.

After he finished speaking, Yue Xiuming ordered Li Dingfeng to summon the sergeant and ran towards the town gate with great interest, not even looking at Zeng Wenxin again.

Zeng Wenxin looked helpless and looked at Mu Hanyan apologetically. As a citizen of Shangyue, he certainly didn't have a good impression of An Yunguo, but with his responsibility, he couldn't be as rude as Yue Xiuming.

"Let's go, let's go take a look too." Mu Hanyan didn't take it seriously, and walked towards the city gate with Huayue and the others.

Torches were lit everywhere in the town, and the towers were even brighter.

Although the town is not big, it is extremely strong, and the city wall is as high as ten feet. If you only look at the city wall, it is not much worse than some county towns. It's no wonder that mountain towns like this are often used as military fortresses during wartime, and are naturally much stronger than ordinary cities.

On the city wall, a gray-haired old man wearing a worn-out armor, dancing a long sword, is commanding a dozen soldiers under his command to build bows and shoot swords. This is the city owner of the town. When he came to visit Yue Xiuming tremblingly, Mu Hanyan saw him go upstairs, but he didn't say a word. The people of An Yun and Shangyue hated each other deeply. Just too lazy to make fun of yourself.

Naturally, there are not many sergeants stationed in such a small town in the mountains. There are no more than 20 people in total. Of course, it is difficult to defend a city with them. However, in addition to these sergeants, hundreds of civilians are also standing at the head of the city, pulling them quickly. with a longbow.

Only then did Mu Hanyan know that it is true that the whole people of Shangyue Kingdom are good at martial arts. These people are old and young, male and female, and their strength is not bad.

With the sound of the bowstring trembling, countless sharp arrows shot down the city wall like lightning, and then there was a shrill beast roar.

Mu Hanyan also stood on the city tower at this time, and saw thousands of alien beasts rushing towards the city wall one after another, including the alien beast wind pig, one-horned sheep and so on.

The strength of these alien beasts is obviously not strong, and there is not much resistance in the face of the arrow rain that the swordsmen are condescending. Helpless whimper.

"Hahaha, these stupid beasts really have no brains, and they rushed up one after another to die." Yue Xiuming laughed.

Next to him, the city lord looked serious and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something.

Mu Hanyan frowned as he looked at the alien beast that rushed up to his death like a moth to a flame.

She has also heard about the alien beasts attacking the city. These alien beasts are not as stupid and mindless as Yue Xiuming imagined. They usually retreat quickly without taking any advantage. They will never rush to die like this.

"Sir, the situation doesn't seem to be quite right." Mu Hanyan was secretly surprised when he heard the old city lord next to him say a little worried.

"What's wrong?" Yue Xiuming asked nonchalantly.

"In the past, when alien beasts attacked the city, they usually retreated after a few attacks. Today, they are going crazy one after another to die." The old city owner said, but it was the same as Mu Hanyan thought.

"Oh? I thought these alien beasts were so stupid that they were not afraid of death." Yue Xiuming said curiously.

"No, no, although these alien beasts are not high-level, they are much smarter than adults imagined. This is the first time I have seen this kind of situation after guarding here for many years. It must be a little strange." The old city owner said.

"What's weird?" Yue Xiuming seemed to have broken the casserole and asked to the end.

"The old man doesn't understand, but there must be a reason for this." The old city owner shook his head and said.

"Ha... I understand." Yue Xiuming suddenly patted his head and said.

"Oh? Please make it clear." Everyone around him looked at him suspiciously.

Mu Hanyan also turned her head curiously. She couldn't understand the reason, but she didn't know what the scoundrel prince had.
